1
And it came to pass that I Abraham did go forth from
the mountain were the Lord had commanded and later held that command, that I
should sacrifice Isaac and I did go forth from the mountain unto the valley
called Shemlon and there I did build a alter and offer sacrifice unto my God
and did ask the Lord, Oh Lord, where fore did thou sendest me into the mountain
to sacrifice my son, then did send thine angel to stop me, and how can these
things be both of thee.
2
And the Lord God spake unto me that night in a dream
and he appeared unto me in my dream in the valley of Shemlon and said at the
time that send thee forth unto the mountain to sacrifice Isaac, it was
expedient, but then when were about to strike, it was no longer expedient,
hence my command, and sending forth my servant to stop thy hand that my
purposes might be fulfilled in Isaac, that thy seed should be numbered even as
the sands of the sea and the stars of heaven, that my covenant in those things
might be fulfilled and many more things did the Lord speak unto me in the
valley Shemlon, and in this record, I was commanded to seal them up that they
may come forward at a later time.
3
Now this did bring peace in to my heart, for I knew
that the Lord did command, even as it was expedient that the Lord should
command and that his ways are the ways of righteousness.
4
And I Abraham did return unto the tent with Sarah and
did lay down upon my bed being over come with the spirit in so much that my whole
frame did shake and that I was indeed taken to a place that had been prepared
by the Lord to fulfill his purposes.
5
And I did see many wonderful things, first a tree even
the tree of Life as the Lord said it was, and there was fruit upon the tree, even
the most white and beautiful fruit that I believe could ever have been formed.
6
And the Lord said unto me, Abraham here is this fruit
of the tree of Life in opposition to its sweetness, there is the tree of
knowledge of good and evil, and thou art commanded to ensure that thy seed art
to partake of this (the Tree of Life) fruit and share it with all whom they
meet.
7
And it came to pass that I Abraham did partake of the
fruit and did go forth among my seed, distributing this great fruit unto them
and I did give it with great joy.
8
And this joy did surpass even my quickened
understanding of what could be given in a full measure of Joy unto those who
were obedient to their covenants.
9
And it did come to pass that we were filled, even with
in expressible joy that we did manifest many spiritual gifts.
10
And it came to pass that I Abraham was desirous that
my sons should partake and that all of my posterity should partake.
11
And there came one sent from the presence of God, even
an angel of the most high, and this is what he said.
12
Abraham wherefore art thou, Abraham, even the servant
of the most high God, and I Abraham said, here I am.
13
And it came to pass that the angel spake unto me again
saying Abraham, wherefore art thou, Abraham even the servant of the Most High
God, and I Abraham did raise my voice and did say, here I am.
14
And it came to pass that the Angel spake unto me a
third time, saying, Abraham wherefore art thou, Abraham, even the servant of
the Most High God who dwells among men.
15
And I Abraham did cry out these words, Oh Lord my God,
make it known unto thy servants whom thou hast sent that I am here and am
prepared for thy message.
16
And it came to pass that the angel of the Lord did
reveal himself and did step as it were through a conduit of pure light, even
that it did nearly blind me and I lifted my arm to shelter my eyes and I was
then quickened to see that he was accompanied by another who remained silent,
yet they both did glow, even with the brightest of lights and I Abraham did
test them, even that I did thirst forth my hand unto them to be able to touch
them and the angle of the Lord said unto me, stop O Son of Man, for I have no
flesh but am come in the spirit from the presence of almighty God to declare
unto thee that thou shall be shown, even those things which shall befall all of
man kind, for thou art called and chosen to be the father of many nations and
to witness of me saith the Father.
17
And it came to pass that I Abraham did immediately
stop and fall to my knees and did lower my stature to honor them and the one
who was silent did gesture unto me to rise with his right hand, and I arose and
did stand to greet them.
18
And it came to pass that they did speak many more
wonderful things unto me and did declare that these things should not come forth
in this record, but should be had upon the plates of brass, even that this
record should be handed down unto my chosen seed, even my son Isaac and thence
unto his posterity.
19
And it did come among my people, even as the angel the
Lord had commanded me, that these things might be testified of in mine own due
time.
20
And it came to pass that they did teach me for the
space of three days and three nights and sleep fled from me and my sweet wife
Sarah, for we were blessed to be taught, even from on high.
21
And there came unto us for this time such truth as I
had never known before, for they taught us to behold the nothingness of man and
the glory of God and at the time, my wife Sarah was overcome by the things we
were taught and she did exclaim that she could bare no more, but would endure
by my side as was her place.
22
And I saw the heavens open and the mouths of the Holy
Ones were loosed and atop the mountain of the Lord where the power of God is
at, the children of the last days and first days were taught from all of the
mouths of the Holy Ones and the hope of the ancient of days, even Adam, the
first man on this earth was fulfilled which was prophesied unto my fathers in
the sacred valley where the Lord our God did come and visit the Patriarchs of
the ancients before the great flood.
23
And I Abraham was called to go and see this scene and
to my amazement, my heart was opened and my mind the same in that the two that
came unto me and my wife were the same that were at the head in this place.
24
And the third was even the young Enoch who was of my
fathers and they were there, but were of a form that is not but of God.
25
And Adam was brought to the head and was given the
spirit of prophecy by God himself and did speak all things concerning his
descendants and the tongue of the ancient of days was loosed and souls were
brought unto their God, for all who did hear the words in the spirit of our
Father did come unto God that day.
26
And I did see the prophecies of his words before my
eyes and the last prophecy he uttered was that he would gather again into the
same place all those who were righteous and deliver up the powers of God unto
God and by the spirit of power would he do these things.
27
And I did see the counsels of God open up before my
eyes and did see the prophets of old and of the last days and of every day come
unto the place appointed, and yield up the priesthoods that they were given
back to God and I did see that they did in one voice call nigh unto God to set
Adam as a prince over the earth and I did see all the flesh of the earth in the
soul of Adam.
28
And I did see the spirit come upon him and overcome
the flesh and I did see that he was at that time made to stand with God and the
third was the first and the first was the Last and all was brought unto God and
was in him, for I did look into the soul of God and I did see that the man Adam
was in God and God was in him.
29
And I did see that by my flesh even of Adam was I
given the weakness, for God to over come.
30
And I did see three that were God, even the Father of
the Son and the flesh perfect, even the Lamb and the Holy Ghost of the spirit
did also come in the flesh and all these three were in the spirit within me.
31
And I was within them and all of time was laid in the
soul of Christ and in his spirit was man given power over it, that the
eternities of heaven were within the hands of man as was given by the hands of
God, for I did see that God was once a man and that as a man in God I could
become as he is.
32
And I did see that I was even as he is and through the
Lamb was made to be rid of the weaknesses of the flesh.
33
And I Abraham did fall down and worship God and was
told to stand upright as one in the same and walk with God as a noble and great
one like I was before.
34
And now I did see the spirits of heaven were the
children of those who were made equal with God and that these spirits were
given unto us for our posterity and that the righteous of our posterity were
given power to rise up and overcome and have the same.
35
And those that were less and did not hold on to the
light were taken from the light unto a place of darkness and they did there
give the light they had unto another and it did come nigh back to God, for he,
even the God of all did go down in the darkness unto the captive light and did
bring it all unto him and no other could go unto the place of this darkness,
save they were dark themselves, yet in God he did go and gather the light of
the souls that were there and give it unto those who were the brightest with
him.
36
And I became of those that were with him and was made
in his image and countenance and was given the light by his hands.
1 Now I
Abraham have been unto counsels of God and of angels and do bare record that
these things should be had among all men of this earth, yet I have seen these
who should receive and many will not, but are given unto places of darkness.
2 And
these places of darkness is what I have been commanded to write concerning and
to enquire of the lord as to how to prepare the saints of the last days so that
they might avoid these evils and partake of the light continually.
3 Now
when I was taken up unto the mountain of holiness before the Lord and was given
the powers of heaven, I was then taken through out the various times even unto
the days that these records of my name would be had among the children of men.
4 And I
did see that the leaders of the nations of this world were in league one with
another in darkness.
5 And
those who would not covenant with them in darkness were destroyed by the
shedding of much blood.
6 And
by the shedding of much blood they did obtain the power over all of the nations
of the world save it were a few of the saints of the Most High God that were
caught up unto the place of the throne of the same, that they might be named
and sealed and kept from the earth in the time with out time, that no man of
time might harm them.
7 Now I
speak concerning these places of darkness that are upon the face of the earth
at the time these words are received.
8 And
they speak to remove the light of Jehovah from their souls and they fight for
the wealth and fame of the earth.
9 And
they do give gifts of great grandeur one to another that they might receive the
good things of earth concerning the wealth of the nations.
10 And
they did oppress the meek and lowly of the earth with great taxes and burdens
and laws upon laws upon laws, so that they might at their will and pleasure
imprison any that they desired so that they might better be able to loot and
plunder the meek and lowly of heart, yet they did invite many of the meek of
the earth to partake of their nobility as they called it and yet this was but a
snare unto eternal damnation.
11 And I
did see peeping and muttering wizards who did use the arts of darkness to
deceive the souls of men.
12 And I
did see many harlots and much wine and other strong drink.
13 And I
did see many foul things that were made by the hands of men and the lusts of
devils to ensnare the souls of men who would partake of them.
14 And
some were filled with vile toxins and other horrible things designed to kill
the soul and fire the mind and will of its control so that he or she who would
partake might loose their flesh unto the devils and demons of darkness.
15 Yet I
did see that the saints of God did observe to keep strict the law of health and
to observe within the kingdoms of peace a place of righteousness and humility
before the Lord our God, even the Lord of Hosts did return to take the kingdom
of his name in power.
1 In
the plains of Mamre and on the day the Lord named me, I have caused these words
to be written in the sand which is before me and the Lord spake unto me this
day saying, no more shalt thou be called Abram but Abraham, for a father of
many nations have I made thee.
2 And I
spake saying, Lord how is it done.
3 And
he spake unto me as thus, my Son Abraham, what so ever I have caused to come in
my heart, even that have I fulfilled and caused to be fulfilled by the faith
and knowledge of my name and the faith and knowledge and power of my servants
who have come to do my will.
4 And
upon this night shall you see the stars of heaven fall from their place.
5 And
there shall be darkness for the space of three and one half days.
6 And
you shall no longer be in the plains of Mamre, but you shall be taken unto the
holy city of my name and there you shall be given sight of all things, even
from the beginning unto the end.
7 And I
shall cause that your memory shall after writing these things be taken from you
and returned at the time of your ascension unto me as a man of perfected flesh
and resurrected by my hand.
8 And
thus saith the Lord, I have chosen you to be the father of all in the round of
eternal life, for all who come unto me as thou hast come unto me nothing held
back shall become even as the prince Adam is in this world.
9 And
the eternal realm of my making shall I cause to become in them a eternal round
of power like a well springing up unto everlasting life.
10 And
thus saith the Father unto my Sons and Daughters who shall read these words,
the meat of my gospel is to prepare you for the power of the ancients, for if
you were given that power with out the check and balance of my Son Jesus
Christ, it would consume you and burn you up saith the Lord.
11 Yet
have I caused these things to come line upon line and precept upon precept and
here a little and there a little until you receive a fullness of both my power
and my will.
12 And
like a child grows from the milk of the cow unto the meet of the same and yet
still washes it down in the water of life, even so are you to become the
children of my name by the faith of my will.
13 And
by the testimony that shall grow in your hearts.
14 I am
the same yesterday, today, and forever.
15 And
many shall not see the glory that shall be given unto the righteous, for they
will not hear my voice nor follow my will.
16 And I
have laid down my life eternally for your welfare.
17 And
thus saith the Lord of heaven and earth, so also has the Holy Ghost done the
same and the Son of our making, even Adam has had to do the same and in him
shall all flesh be gathered by the spirit of the Holy Ghost in the flesh that
all might be returned in one eternal round unto the place of perfected flesh
and spirit.
18 And
thus it is amen.
1
Blessed be the name of the Most High God, blessed be
the name of his Son, blessed be the priest who in Salem’s throne, praised and
redeemed everyone.
2
Blessed be the name of the Sherats whip that drives
off the dark and the weak, blessed be the strength of the holy one even unto
whom that we seek.
3
These were the words that were sung by the brethren of
God that assembled themselves together n the plains of Mamre at the well of
which I dug.
4
Now there were those that gathered unto the well by
which I was given some measure of time to discuss the things of God with that
were receiving of the things of his will.
5
And these did travel unto the city of peace to receive
their inheritances from Melchizedek who was the king and high priest of peace.
6
And he was willing to give all for his people.
7
And it came to pass that the well became a place of
refuge for the caravans that traded from the kings of the North unto the bands
of men from the South and long the border of the valley.
8
And it was given to be formed as a place of gathering
by the hand of God so that men might draw near to him.
